Easter Fun at Museums (Sketchbook Work)

I had a lovely (but busy) Easter this year and took the opportunity to sketch. Fist is Cardiff Museum. I drew some of the architecture and then a few of the animals inside to. For the architecture I used white pencil, regular pencil, charcoal, ballpoint pen:




 Here for the animals in the museum I used fine liner with water, watercolour pencil, ballpoint pen and oil pastels:





Here are a few sketches from when I went to visit my grandma and we went to the beach. I used watercolours and pencil: 




I also visited The Museum of Natural History in London. Here a did a few pencil and ballpoint pen sketches of some of the animals inside:

Buildings and Vehicles (Sketchbook Work)

These are sp,e sketches of building around Cardiff including my university. I used (in order) Marker, pencil, watercolour and finally ball point with tippex:








These are vehicles from an army base we visited and got a chance to sketch in. These are a mixture of markers, pencil and ball point pen:

Gestures & Poses (Sketchbook Work)

Along side CG animation I take a Visual Forms Module. As well as producing a research diary, I had to produce a sketchbook exploring different media and subject matter. Here are the pages I produced for it:

Im going to post the pages in bunches so its not a crazy mega long post. First here are some explorations of human gestures and poses. These are quick sketches done in pencil
